As the winter season approaches, it's the perfect time to make your home feel cosy and inviting, whilst embracing the seasons aesthetic. This year, winter decor trends are all about comfort, warmth and simple elegance. Here are some of our favourite trends for 2024...
1. Earthy Tones and Deep Hues
This winter expect to see a lot of earthy tones and rich, deep colours. Shades like terracotta, forest green, and deep navy are perfect for creating a warm atmosphere. These colours create a sense of calm, as well as providing a beautiful backdrop for winter and Christmas themed decor. If you're not quite ready to take the plunge and add these bold colours to your walls, you can incorporate them more subtly using cushions, blankets, lamps and other small homewares.
2. Cosy Textures
Adding cosy textures to your interior is a lovely way to create an inviting setting. Think chunky knit blankets, plush velvet cushions, and faux fur throws. These elements not only keep you warm (and help keep your heating bill down!) but also work in a large variety of spaces. Combining these items with materials like woods and metal balances the look of your room all year round.
3. Bringing Nature Inside
Bringing a piece of the outdoors, indoors, is a trend that never goes out of style and can be particularly important to help you get your 'nature fix' during the winter months. Incorporating natural elements like pinecones, preserved moss and evergreen garlands into your decor can instantly transform your home. For a more permanent touch, consider adding hardy houseplants that thrive not only in winter but all year round, like a snake plant or pothos.
4. Warm Lighting
As the days grow shorter, layering the right lighting becomes crucial in setting the ambience in your home. Consider adding candles, floor and/or table lamps, fairy lights, or warm LED fixtures to enhance the living atmosphere. Table lamps with soft lightly coloured shades can also provide a gentle glow, making your living space feel warm and welcoming.
